CONWAY — Central Arkansas took control early on Saturday with runs of
11-0 and 15-3 in the first half to build a commanding lead against Sam
Houston State, then stretched it to as many as 25 in the second half
and cruised to an 82-63 win over the Bearkats in the Farris Center.
With the win, the Sugar Bears (17-5, 7-2 Southland) collect their
seventh straight victory and remain at least tied atop the Southland's
East Division standings pending the result of Saturday night's game
between Stephen F. Austin and Lamar. It was the fourth straight loss
for the Bearkats (5-15, 2-6). UCA has now won five of the seven by
double digits and its average margin of victory during the win streak
is 13.7.
The Sugar Bears came out hot early, scoring 11 straight points in a
span of 4:30 to take a 10-point lead, then followed it up with a 15-3
run over a five-minute span later in the half as they built a 39-21
lead with 2:10 to play in the first.
The Bearkats cut the lead to 13, but that would be the closest they'd
get as UCA junior center Megan Moss hit a 3-pointer from the top of the
key just before the buzzer to send the Sugar Bears into the locker room
with a 45-29 advantage.
